Corneal Biomechanical Properties and Intraocular Pressure in High Myopic Anisometropia

OBJECTIVES To investigate corneal biomechanical properties and intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with high myopic anisometropia. METHODS Patients with high myopic anisometropia (n = 23) and emmetropic subjects (n = 55) were enrolled. Corneal hysteresis (CH), Goldmann-correlated intraocular pressure (IOPg), corneal resistance factor, and corneal-compensated IOP (IOPcc) were measured with Ocular Response Analyzer. Central corneal thickness was measured by optical coherence tomography. Zeiss IOL-Master determined the values of corneal refractive power and ocular axial length. RESULTS Significant differences were presented in CH, IOPg, and IOPcc among the high myopic, contralateral, and normal eyes (analysis of variance, P
